Z-Out Levelmaps

[hajodick]

Hello again,

the levelmaps for another game are finished: Z-Out.

Archive can be found in the Zone: https://eab.abime.net/zone/hajodick_z-out_hol.zip

Some basic infos:

• 32 Color Lo-Res Screen using 2 Copperlists and a single-screen-horizontal scrolling technique - Could learn very much about such games during my work.
• Z-Out uses a dual-layer-screen for the game and stores the level data in 2 different tables.
• First step was to blit the complete background layer of each 4800x224 pixel sized level.
• The next step was to write the foreground layer using cookie-cut-blits.
• Then several objects including the bosses where added.
• There are several color changes in the maps:
  • Changes of the palette depending on the progress of the level (e.g. Boss of Level 2)
  • Changes of the complete palette running with the beam via the copperlist (e.g. Level 2 and Level 5)
  • Palette Ranges in the Background (Level 4)

The whole creation of the maps was done with 6 pieces of level-specific assembly code. It is impossible to rip these maps with Maptapper, so here they are.
